Jessie J has confirmed that she no longer considers herself bisexual.

The Do It Like A Dude singer said that she now wants to find herself a husband.

Jessie – who came out as bisexual in 2011 – explained to The Mirror: “For me, it was a phase. But I’m not saying bisexuality is a phase for everybody.

“I feel that if I continue my career not speaking on it, I almost feel more of a liar than if I didn’t. I just want to be honest, and it’s really not a big deal. Who cares?”

Despite her changing sexuality, the 26-year-old said that she stands by her decision to be open about her feelings three years ago.

“I was open about it, and I do support being lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender – love who you want. That’s what I’m doing.

“I don’t regret anything I ever said, but I never knew back then that whatever I said became a fact that I couldn’t change. I’m just so bored of it, and that’s kind of it – I want to stop talking about it completely now and find myself a husband.

However, the singer said that she doesn’t wish to label her sexuality, adding: “I’m aware of who I want to be and I want to marry a man. That’s it.”
